Driver Memory Seat This feature allows the driver to store
up to two different memory profiles
for easy recall through a memory
switch. Each memory profile contains
desired position settings for the driver
seat, external side mirrors, adjustable
pedals (optional), and power tilt and
telescopic steering column and a set of
programmed radio stations.
Your key fob RKE transmitter can also
be set to recall the same positions by
pressing the
button.
NOTE:
• Only one key fob RKE transmitter
can be linked to each of the memory
positions.
• “Passive Entry” door handles cannot
be linked to the memory function.
Use either the memory recall switch
or the key fob RKE transmitter (if
linked to the memory feature) to
recall memory positions 1 or 2.
The memory seat switch is located on
the driver's door trim panel. The
switch consists of three buttons:
• The “S” (SET) button, which is used
to activate the memory save
function. • The “1” and “2” buttons which are
used to recall either of two
programmed memory profiles.
Memory Profiles Setting NOTE:
Saving a new memory profile will
erase an existing profile from memory.
To create a new memory profile,
perform the following:
• Cycle the ignition device to the ACC
or RUN position.
• Adjust all memory profile settings to
desired preferences (i.e., seat, side
mirrors, adjustable pedals (optional),
power tilt and telescopic steering
column, and radio station presets).
• Press and release the “S” button on
the memory switch.
• Within 5 seconds, press and release
the memory button “1” or “2”. • Check on the instrument cluster for
the positive response of the actions
“Memory 1 (or 2) profile set”.
After these steps, the profile set will
be memorized in the selected position.

occur before selecting a new recall. Easy Entry/Exit Driver Seat This feature provides automatic driver
seat positioning to enhance driver
mobility when entering and exiting
the vehicle.
The distance the driver seat moves
depends on where you have the driver
seat positioned when you place the
ignition device to the OFF position.
• When you cycle the ignition device
to the OFF position the driver seat:
• will move about 2.36 in (60 mm)
rearward if the driver seat position
is greater than or equal to ca. 5.51
in (140 mm) forward of the rear
stop;
• will move to a position of ca. 3.15
in (80 mm) rearward of the rear

electrically and are equipped with
anti-mist resistors operated by the air
conditioning system (see “Air
Conditioning Controls” in section
“Dashboard Instruments and
Controls”).
The mirrors can be closed electrically
and will yield in both directions in case
of a collision.
The external mirrors are
electrochromic, which means, they
automatically operate an anti-glare
function by gradually shading as the
light hitting the mirrors increases.
The external rear-view electrochromic
mirrors work in conjunction with the
internal rear-view electrochromic
mirror.
NOTE:
• The mirrors can be adjusted
electrically only with the ignition
device in ACC and RUN position.

passenger side convex mirror could
cause you to collide with another
vehicle or object. Use the inside mirror
to judge the size or distance of a
vehicle seen in the external side
convex mirror.
Tilt Side Mirrors In Reverse
This
feature provides automatic
external rearview mirrors positioning,
allowing the driver to view the ground
area behind the front doors. The
external mirrors will move slightly
